Pedicurists: set up manicure and pedicure combos

A client who wants both hands and feet done shouldn't have to book two separate appointments and hope they line up. With Book, you create each combo as its own service, with one slot that covers the whole visit and one price, so the client books it in one go and you see exactly how long they'll be with you.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page, and each online booking takes one place in one slot of one service. So a combo works best as a single service, not two bookings:

Durations and prices are examples: set your own from how long each combo takes you, including drying time.

If you do both parts yourself, the slot is simply the two treatments back to back, plus drying. Plan the order in the description: feet first then hands is a common choice so the client can use their hands to put shoes back on, but say what you do.

If two technicians work on the same client at the same time, the combo takes less time but uses two people. Book has one booking page per business and no staff field, so create a dedicated service, such as "Mani-pedi with two technicians", and only open its slots when both are free. Slots of different services can overlap, so check that both technicians' own services are closed at that time.

Each online booking takes one place. For two friends who want to be treated side by side, open a duo service with two places per slot. Each friend books one place, and when both are taken the slot leaves your page. Say in the description that each person books separately.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email. Ask for the colour wanted or a design idea. Tell clients not to write health details in the note, since it appears in their calendar file.

Before summer or the holidays, add a themed combo as its own service with an end date. Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until that date.

Before a regular leaves, book their next combo from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file.

Book doesn't take payments, sell packages or gift vouchers, or send reminders. Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you. Rescheduling works across services, so a combo can become a single pedicure from your list. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
